How NATCO tile with the "built-in" handles saves time... money
Natco Tex Dri-Wall unit has a "built-in" handle enables it to be picked up and laid with one hand. It leaves the other hand free to work the trowel. As a result, walls of Natco Tex Dri-Wall Tile are laid more quickly and easily. This reduction in labor means lower over-all construction costs.
Nominal 8" exterior walls of Tex Dri-Wall Tile, in a 3%" face size, give the appearance of high-quality face. Single unit construction replaces both the facing and backing unit of ordinary masonry materials. Interior faces can be furred and plastered, panelled, painted or left in their natural clay tile textured finish.
Load-bearing Tex Dri-Wall Tile is a genuine clay tile product and is available in wire-cut textured red shale, or glazed buff fire clay material.
